Michelle Obama is concerned about the upcoming US presidential elections. The thought of it keeps her awake at night, the former first lady said on British author Jay Shetty’s podcast. Obama had the impression that democracy would be taken for granted, but that was not the case.
The upcoming US presidential elections in November are, as she says, giving former first lady, Michelle Obama, sleepless nights. “I’m terrified of what could happen,” she says.
Scarier look into the future
“Our leaders are important. Who we elect, who speaks for us, who occupies the top position sometimes influences us in ways that people take for granted.” She has the impression that democracy is also taken for granted, but that is not the case.
“These are the things that keep me awake,” said the wife of former President Barack Obama. She also worries about turnout: “Will people vote, and why don’t people vote?”
She wanted to wake people up, she explained, by warning of his possible election victory without mentioning Donald Trump’s name. Referring to Trump’s legal troubles, she said, “Some people can be sued countless times and still run for office.” Black men can’t do that.”
Trump in court again
In fact, former President Donald Trump has the best chance of becoming the Republican nominee in next November’s presidential election, even though numerous legal challenges are pending against him.
On Tuesday, he appeared at a hearing before an appeals court in Washington, which must decide whether he enjoys immunity as then US president in connection with the allegations against him surrounding the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021.
